Get a taste of our learning experience

ESMT Bites is a series of bite-sized online lectures designed to give you an authentic preview of the ESMT classroom experience. Each session features one of our distinguished faculty members introducing a core idea from their field, sharing practical insights, and engaging participants in the kind of discussion that defines our degree programs.

This month's edition features a lecture by Henry Sauermann, professor of Strategy and the TEAM GLOBAL Chair for Disruptive Innovation. Henry explores the role of human capital in science, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Among others, he studies how scientists’ motives and incentives relate to important outcomes such as innovative performance in firms, patenting in academia, or career choices and entrepreneurial interests. In new projects, Henry studies the dynamics of motives and incentives over time, and explores non-traditional innovative institutions such as Crowdsourcing and Citizen Science. Additional work is underway to gain deeper insights into scientific labor markets and to derive implications for junior scientists, firms, and policy makers.

Whether you are exploring an MBA or a master's degree, ESMT Bites gives you a meaningful introduction to our faculty, our academic approach, and our community.
